{NOTE! ~THIS IS A STANDALONE SEQUEL OF 'HER BLOOD'}

In a world where immortality reigns, life knows no end. However, immortals are divided into two categories: the strong and the weak. The weak can be easily killed, often possessing vulnerabilities that make them susceptible to the superior immortals. 

*
Tragedy strikes when my father, a weak immortal with a fated weakness, is killed by a man I once revered. This man, who cannot be vanquished, has also passed down his trait to me through my mother. I hold both my mother and this man accountable for my father's demise and all the ensuing events.

Even though my mother sent the man into hiding to atone for the pain caused, I am certain that he will return. Only this time, it will be different. He will come back to complete what he started, to seek vengeance and forcefully take back what belonged to him.

HER SON

One morning, Keturah woke up with the feeling to vomit and make use of the toilet.

As she supported herself to get up, a harsh pain shot up from her left hand all the way to her arm and she cried out in pain.

The urge to use the toilet was high as well as the need to throw up. She groaned in pain as she tried to stand on her feet.

Once she was on her feet, she supported her back with her right hand and dragged her swollen feet to the door.

Her left arm suddenly became numb after the pain she felt and she couldn't move it.

"V…Vee." The energy to scream was not there and she found herself calling her caretaker's name in a low voice.

It took her five minutes to open the door in tears with the good hand which she had used to support her waist. She inhaled deeply before exhaling heavily as she stood in one place.

"Vee…" she began to breathe with difficulty as she resumed dragging her feet in pain.
